Allegedly, Bhogireddy Trishna had installed a tracking device on Pranav Sista's car to stalk him and monitor his activities. Later, she also hired a few other people to abduct Pranav and she could successfully do so, and pester him until he agreed to her wishes. Then only he was released from the same. Following this, Pranav reportedly filed a case with the police, and she was booked under 363 (kidnapping), 341 (wrongful restraint), 342 (wrongful confinement), and relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). Finally, on February 23, 2024, Trishna was arrested in Hyderabad.
The incident started happening when the businesswoman saw the photos of the TV anchor on a matrimony website. Then, they started chatting with the account holder since 2022. However, later, she realised that the account holder was not Pranav, allegedly using the TV anchor's photo as the profile picture on the matrimony site instead of his own photo. She then used her digital skills and searched thoroughly until she found Pranav's phone number. Afterwards, Trishna contacted Pranav through an instant messaging app but was informed by him that some unknown person had used his photo to create a fake account on the matrimony site.
